Tick Trading Software AG has announced the expansion of its service portfolio to include consulting services for companies in the financial sector. The German software company, known for its securities trading and settlement solutions, is broadening its strategic focus under new CEO Martin Luttich, who joined the company on October 1, 2025, following his career at HSBC Germany.
The new consulting unit will support financial institutions in addressing technological and process-related challenges, with particular focus on business analysis and project support along the entire securities value chain. The consulting services extend beyond support for the company's own products to include customized project support for third-party software integration and optimization of business processes to meet regulatory requirements.
Luttich emphasized that the changing framework conditions in the financial industry consistently present companies with new challenges. "With its many years of industry experience, our team can deliver real added value in analyzing and overcoming these challenges," he stated. The expansion builds on the company's established reputation in software development for securities trading and settlement.
To launch the consulting division, tick Trading Software AG has hired two new colleagues with extensive experience in business analysis and complex project management. Both hold doctorates in physics and previously worked at a major European bank, bringing substantial consulting expertise and deep technical understanding of securities business, regulatory requirements, and information technology.
The company's established TradeBase MX platform (TBMX) has been serving professional customers for more than 20 years as one of the world's most advanced trading platforms. The platform includes direct connections to national and international marketplaces and brokers, market making tools for designated sponsoring, proprietary hosting infrastructure, and the e-Trading Compliance Monitor (ECM) for ESMA regulation compliance.
This strategic expansion represents tick Trading Software AG's commitment to strengthening its market position while actively shaping the financial sector through both custom software solutions and consulting services. The move comes as financial institutions face increasing complexity in regulatory compliance and technological integration, creating demand for specialized consulting expertise from established industry players.
The consulting services expansion is particularly significant given the company's track record in the securities industry and its understanding of regulatory frameworks. Financial institutions operating in today's environment must navigate complex compliance requirements while maintaining operational efficiency, making specialized consulting services increasingly valuable. The addition of consulting capabilities positions tick Trading Software AG to provide more comprehensive solutions to financial sector clients facing these multifaceted challenges.
